Welcome to Forest Friends

Our Mission
Forest Friends School serves kids ages 4-6 in the Coeur d'Alene, Idaho area. We are located just 10 minutes South of downtown CDA on 5 beautiful acres of forest & field at a private home. Our classes are capped at 6, giving your child an individualized, nurturing approach to early learning.
